short-term rental
Brief vacation accommodation
A short-term rental is a furnished property rented for brief periods—typically days or weeks rather than months.
The term distinguishes vacation rentals and Airbnb-style accommodations from traditional leases: The building prohibits short-term rentals.
Many cities regulate short-term rentals to address housing availability and neighborhood concerns.
